Supported living housingA home of your own.
A home of your own.
A clearer way forward.
For adults with learning disabilities and mental health needs, the right home is a foundation for everyday life.
Sahan provides and manages the housing. A separate registered care provider delivers the care. Here’s how those responsibilities fit together, and how to explore a move.
The person comes first.
A housing enquiry starts with understanding someone’s life, not simply finding an available room.
Our supported living housing is for adults with learning disabilities and mental health needs who need a home alongside care and support.
Suitability depends on the individual, the available home and the care arrangements. An initial conversation helps establish whether there is a possible fit.
- 01What the person wants from their home and where they would like to live.
- 02Their housing, accessibility and day-to-day support needs.
- 03The care arrangements, funding position and proposed timing of a move.
Please contact us to confirm current locations and availability. An enquiry does not guarantee a placement.
One home.
Clear responsibilities.
Supported living keeps housing and care distinct. Knowing who does what helps residents, families and professionals ask the right questions and plan with confidence.
They deliver the care.
- Deliver the care agreed for the individual.
- Manage care staff and day-to-day care delivery.
- Respond to questions about the person’s care provision.
- Work with those involved in planning the person’s support.
Sahan does not deliver the regulated care provided by the separate registered care provider. Care arrangements need to be discussed alongside housing suitability before a move is agreed.

A big decision.
Room for every question.
You don’t need to have everything worked out before you talk to us.
If you’re exploring supported living for a family member, we can explain our housing role and the questions to discuss with their social worker or care team.
The person’s wishes should be central to the conversation. A potential move is a chance to talk about familiar routines, important relationships, getting around and what makes somewhere feel like home.
Our community work reflects the same belief: having a place to live and feeling that you belong both matter.
Talk to us about a family memberPractical questions.
A few things to know before taking the next step.
Is supported living the same as a care home?
No. In supported living, housing and care are separate arrangements. Sahan provides and manages the home; a separate registered provider delivers care. The specific housing terms and care arrangements should be clarified before any move is agreed.
Can a family member make an enquiry?
Yes. Families are welcome to start a conversation about housing. We can explain our role and discuss the next steps, including involving the person’s social worker or commissioning team where appropriate.
Where are homes available?
Please contact us about current availability in your preferred area. Locations and available housing need to be confirmed directly with our team; this page is not a list of current vacancies.
How are housing costs and care funding agreed?
Housing costs and care funding need to be considered separately. Ask us about the costs and terms for a proposed home, and discuss care funding with the relevant social worker or commissioning team. These arrangements need to be clear before a move is agreed.
Can we visit before making a decision?
If there is a potentially suitable home, a visit is part of exploring the match. It gives the person and those supporting them an opportunity to see the space, ask questions and discuss what a move would involve.
Can care providers or property partners work with Sahan?
We welcome conversations about working together while keeping housing and care responsibilities clear. Visit our partnerships page to explore a care or property partnership.
